Introduction <br />The City of Louisville contracted Grama Grass & Livestock to graze approximately 88 <br />acres in 2023. 75 acres consist of two grazes on Davidson Mesa Open Space and 13 <br />acres of North Open Space. These two grazes aim to build ecological resiliency and <br />reduce fuel load for potential fires using Best Management Practices (BMP). The <br />Davidson Mesa portion of the contract consists of grazing in the Spring and Fall, creating <br />and implementing photo points from the grazed areas, extracting biological soil samples, <br />participating in a public education event, compiling an end -of -year report to reflect on <br />the impact created by the Grama Grass herd, and presenting that information to the <br />Open Space Advisory Board at the City of Louisville. The North Open Space portion of <br />the contract consists of grazing an additional parcel for the City in the fall. <br />0 <br />If <br />Grama <br />GRASS & LIVESTOCK <br />I ILS: <br />ci*tyc,f- <br />Loui sville <br />12 <br />
